Chapter 44
How could Ayesha easily accept a blood sucking beast Fiza mused shaking her head.
What if they harm us.
Worse what if they make us into one of them.
They had plenty of opportunity for that till now a voice in her head reasoned.
But that doesn't mean they won't do it.
Do you actually believe that?
Fiza didn't notice that she had reached the class thinking of all this. She entered the class sighing and pushing the thoughts away. She needed to concentrate on her studies now. Past few months her attention was all over the place that her main aim had been neglected. She had hardly four months before her course concluded. She couldn't afford to waste much time.
"Hey Fiza" Karan's voice broke her reverie.
"Hi Karan'.nice to see you'..heard you bagged a job in Paris" Fiza said smiling at her friend. She sat beside him.
"Yep'.my cousin works there I sent him some of the works we did for Armaan'.they were impressed" Karan said proudly.
"That's great'.I was really sad that you lost out you know'.but now you got a better one" Fiza said.
"Better? I doubt it'.I mean Armaan's is known world wide na'.have they finalized a name for it" Karan asked.
"Not yet'..I guess that will take some time" Fiza said.
She glanced up and saw Armaan entering the class smiling.
Oh damn! How could I forget Fiza cursed.Now how will I deal with him
"Hello class'sorry friends'.there is not much age difference between us right'..so we will do with the intro'.some of you are known faces'.like Karan, Jessie, T, Javed, Anshuman , Fiza" he stopped and looked at her. Their eyes met for a brief moment.
Fiza looked away first. Armaan sighed and smiled.
"Okay then lets start with the intro" Armaan said.
"Well I hope to remember all your names in time'..so today we will deal with human emotions'.you know that colors represent certain emotions'.which is important for dresses'.so firstly love"
"Red sir" one of the students said.
"Don't call me sir'.call me Armaan or better yet Amy" Armaan said.
"So how many of you like red" Armaan asked.
A few hands raised. Fiza didn't.
"Hmm few of you didn't raise hands'.why Fiza" Armaan walked towards her.
She stood up and looked at her book.
"Why?" he asked stopping right beside her.
"Maybe I don't like love" Fiza answered confidently.
"Is that so? You are confident that you don't need love"
"No sir I do need love and I get enough from my family and friends" Fiza said.
"Well what about that one special love" Armaan asked leaning towards her.
"I don't think I will find that" Fiza said irritated.
Armaan smiled and moved away.
Fiza sighed in relief as the class finished.
She met Armaan again on her way to the canteen.
"Running away are we?" Armaan asked.
"I am not afraid of you Mr.Malik" Fiza answered. Armaan could hear her heart hammering against her chest wall. Fiza felt her heart rate increase.
Is it due to fear or something else both of them thought
"Is that so" Armaan stepped towards her. Fiza moved back. Both continued their movement until Fiza hit the wall.
"Armaan what the hell are you doing" Fiza whispered now visibly frightened.
"What do you think it is?" Armaan asked seductively senting shivers down Fiza's spine.
Fiza blinked at him open mouthed.
"So I still have affect on you" Armaan smirked.
"Fiza" a voice called.
Armaan moved away. Nikki was walking towards them.
"Nikki what are you doing here?" Fiza asked hurriedly to hide her embarrassment at being caught in such a position.
"I am here on Mr.Malik's request'...I am doing a photo shoot for his company...I hope I didn't interrupt anything" Nikki asked gazing sharply at Armaan.
"Off course not Miss. Sinha'.we can go to the studio now'.Fiza would you mind getting my car keys for me from the class'.I guess I left it there" Armaan said sweetly.
"Sure Mr.Malik" Fiza said gritting her teeth.
Armaan and Nikki walked towards the car.
"So what were you doing with Fiza" Nikki asked sharply.
"Excuse me" Armaan frowned.
"Armaan lets not play'.I know very well what you are and so does Fiza'.I can read minds" Nikki answered.
Armaan narrowed his eyes at Nikki.
"Uh uh don't try...you can't read mine...I know how to block it as well" Nikki smirked
"Just a warning'.don't ever hurt my friends'.I have my eyes on you Armaan'.I am a well trained witch and know my job very well'..if worst comes worst'.I will kill you" Nikki warned.
Armaan stared at Nikki who looked back without flinching.
